Bromo-Seltzer Tower, Baltimore

We went to the Baltimore Craft Show on Sunday, one of the biggest in the country. I took a couple of shots on the way there, this one from the car. It’s the Emerson Bromo-Seltzer Tower, built in 1911 and modeled after the Palazzo Vecchio in Florence. I don’t know how well it shows up here, but the letters B-R-O-M-O S-E-L-T-Z-E-R appear on the face, with the Roman numerals less prominent.

A bit of Turkey in Baltimore, posted earlier:

From the thumbnail I thought you had been in the italian Tuscany. This reminds me so much of the Siena and Florence towers.V

Most interesting. I can see the likeness to the Palazzo Vecchio and i can just make out the lettering, because you mentioned it. V

A very nice tower, even looking fragile at the top level.
